Orange is the New Black nearing end?

Blog King, Mass Appeal

LOS ANGELES — “The animals, the animals, trapped, trapped, trapped ’till the cage is full.” Season six of “Orange is the New Black” premieres July 27th on Netflix. But, you may want to eschew binge-watching for now and instead savor the experience. That’s because there’s a good chance next season will be the last. That’s not a misprint. Unless she experiences a radical change of heart, creator Jenji Kohan is planning on pulling the plug in Summer 2019.

“I haven’t made a final decision yet, but I’m leaning toward ending it after seven,” Kohan told the New York Times during a recent interview.

Actress Danielle Brooks, who stars as Tasha ‘Taystee’ Jefferson, expressed a similar sentiment. “After seven, I think it might be time for me to spread my wings, but I don’t want to speak too fast on that,” Brooks told Entertainment Weekly. If Kohan decides to deep-sixthe show, fans will be ticked.

So, what can we expect in the sixth installment? After enduring 5 sanguinary seasons at Litchfield Penitentiary(which included a prison riot), the ladies will be migrated to a different correctional facility where they’ll encountera myriad of new inmates, fresh homosexuality and felonious challenges.

I really sincerely do hope the next season picks up the quality, since I think season 4 was the best season, and it’s kind of crazy how they went from the best season, to the actual worst season out of all of them imo. I feel like they just gave all of the most painful characters the spotlight 24/7 (the nazis, the meth heads, the creepy guards etc) instead of the ones we actually cared about. Also it kind of just… sucked in general. Like… literally nothing happened the whole season. Okay, I’m exaggerating but it might as well have.﻿

I was disappointed in the direction they took the riot. Sure it could be funny in a dark comedic way but that tended to be really backwards at times. Even Humphrey’s death at times (despite what he did) felt a bit too…ugh. Season Four was really great along with the other three seasons because they did humanize these prisoners setting up their struggle to the point we are on their side however the audience has enough brain cells to know they are not always in the right. Penn shot a worker at the abortion clinic, Maria decided to commit crimes which did lead to her missing out on Pepa’s childhood, and every prisoner did do stuff to land themselves there, though some deserve it less than others. The point: No one should be superhuman. Not this system, not the prisoners, nobody. I think that’s why the second half particularly was more immersive than the first. The first alternated between some good episodes and moments (Frieda’s backstory, Taystee’s speech, and her backstory) and borderline ridiculous (Talent show, the fight over no coffee, etc.). I also felt the treatment of Judy King was overly harsh along with the female CO. Not to say Judy wasn’t deserving off a little lesson but coming from Yoga Jones and Anita was terrible and OOC.﻿

Wow people just don’t know how to be grateful anymore. They could have just left it at season 5 and not make a season 6 and have a lot of people pissed off but instead they decided to make a new season for you ungrateful bastards and you’re all complaining about waiting another month for it to come out? And you call yourselves fans. Smfh…﻿

i think something is going to happen to taystee or red (or both) because at the very end of s5 the final shot was just them, like why wouldn’t they show the whole group?? they must’ve put them two there for a reason﻿

i just done watching the 2 first eps and this is my main thought!!!!>>>
It really annoys the whole investigation of the Piscatella murder, he was shot by a SWAT rifle and the only evidence of his murder is a gun( !!!) it’s dosen’t has the same bullets, even though the SWAT shot him more bullets the autopsy will shows the difference between the bullets . It’s just lazy writing!!!﻿

I have been waiting for season 6 of Orange is the New Black with much enthusiasm. What a horrible disappointment. The new characters are awful and the acting from them is abysmal. The first episode is a write off. Don’t bother. It’s ridiculous. I’m on episode 6 and having been hoping for improvement to no avail. All episodes so far feature nothing but bathroom “humour” [not at all funny] all about shit and piss. The characters in this new prison have no redeeming characteristics whatsoever. You hate them all equally. Each episode seems to sit on it’s own with no consistency of plot. I understand the show has new writers…well it shows and it stinks….literally. Don’t know if I can continue to watch this season.﻿

One thing that disappointed me greatly about our character mainstays, is that no one really stood up to the bullies, except Piper and Alex with Madison and Carol, but it was brief. I kept waiting to see Alex or Piper lose their shit at some point and start wailing away at either of the bullies. And poor Daya… it seems like there’s no hope for her. The show is very realistic in the way people drop and betray each other to survive. I never got my hopes too high for any of the characters. If you notice the pattern from literally season 1, all the promising happy outcomes usually get a cruel and dark twist. I wasnt shocked at Flores and Tasha’s fates.﻿
